This latest project fills a slate that is continuing to keep Page busy through the next year. She is also attached to star and produce “Freeheld,” the drama based on the documentary of domestic partners Stacie Andree and Laurel Hester who struggled to secure pension benefits after Hester was diagnosed with a terminal illness.

Everyday is a new day - we can change our past - look forward to a better tomorrow ✌

Of all ms. Page's projects this is definitely the one I'm looking forward to the most... The source material is really impressive and I hope the director choosen will do a good job, in spite he's not a "big" name of the industry (or maybe exactly because of that ). I've seen his last "The Liability" (with Tim Roth and Peter Mullan), a pretty good gangster movie with a nice British touch, so I'm quite optimist.
